CHAPTER 379
Moments after Leander left their sight, Sheryl and Catherine greeted other guests.Alex came rushing over to them and whispered something in Sheryl’s ears, greatly surprising her.“Is this real?” Sheryl looked at him.“I received an invitation card as well,” Alex replied. “It came from the king’s castle. I kept it in the Rose Tower, but I thought you should be the one to tell the boss about it.”“What’s he talking about?” Catherine asked curiously.“The king has announced the starting date of Rankers Festival,” Sheryl said, “and also the gifts for the top three positions. The gift for the second and third positions are great, but the gift for the first position is the Black Hawk Card.”“Black Hawk Card? What’s that?”“It’s an untraceable credit card with unlimited balance,” Sheryl said. “Only three people in Hawkers have them. One is the king himself. Elissa is the second one.”“Who’s the third person?” Catherine quickly asked. “Is it the council president? Or is it the first ranker M
CHAPTER 378
Catherine and Sheryl were both at the entrance of the port, greeting the guests and directing them toward the stage where Denver was.At some point, Leander arrived and offered a handshake.Sheryl held his hand. Using this opportunity, he didn’t let go of her hand and kept smiling.“Are you seeking death?” Sheryl asked with a cold smile.“Death in a beauty’s arms sounds romantic,” Leander replied. “I feel tempted to experience it.”“Cut the crap and let go of my hand,” Sheryl said.“I will… if you promise to spare some time for me tomorrow,” Leander said. “My dad is pressuring me to marry, you see. And I don’t want to marry someone who’s more interested in the mirror than me.”“What makes you think I’d be less interested in the mirror than your face?” Sheryl asked back, yanking her hand and freeing herself.She was able to do it easily because Leander let go of her at the same time.“You worked for someone even after he’s gone for three years,” Leander said. “This kind of loyalty can’

At the Rose Port.Ships were docking, and helicopters also landed in many places. There were also sea planes landing on the beach.All the guests were billionaires and were accompanied by powerful bodyguards.“Look at all these moths gathering at the flame,” Minerva laughed while observing from the watch tower. “They have no idea that they’re all going to get burned.”Catherine was standing right next to her. “Why do you speak negatively on an important occasion like this?”“Haha, just because you praise shit, it doesn’t become a diamond,” Minerva retorted.“Are you talking about yourself?” Catherine said.Minerva cast a cold glance at her. “If anyone spoke to me like this, I’d usually have them under guillotine.”“C’mon, you’re an uninvited guest,” Catherine put her arm around Minerva’s shoulders, surprising and annoying her even more. “I’m already treating you kindly by giving you this much attention and time. So, stop nagging and just stay here until the event finishes, okay? This
CHAPTER 376
Many rankers in the top thousand were very much interested in what’s happening at Rose Park.However, they did not receive an invitation card.Even the ones who were acquainted with Denver in the past weren’t invited, which made them wonder what Denver was up to.The council president Natalia was talking to the special slave squad, SSS, made out of the six handpicked slaves for the sole purpose of infiltration and spying.Each of these six slaves were specialized in a certain skill. Together, they were capable of subduing even a royal knight.Nobody other than Natalia knew of their identities.“Go to Rose Park and observe everything,” Natalia told them, tossing two photos on the floor. “A lot of people will attend the launching of the port, so you will definitely get an opportunity. When you get the chance, kill the two wings of Denver. One is Green Fang Sheryl, and the name of the second one is Catherine. Without them, he’s going to fall sooner or later.”Because Natalia had received

Diane put her everything into the swings, while making sure that the ax cut the logs as cleanly as she could.One thing she realized was that the logs Jamie had reattached were harder to cut than before.But she didn’t let that stop her.Taking Sandy’s guidance, she optimized her swinging movement. As she kept doing it, she forgot about time.She was supposed to be completely tired, but her muscles were pulling out every last bit of energy reserves she had.Many minutes later, she arrived at a state where every swing trembled the tips of her fingers to the ends of her hairs.At the same time, her swings now got much cleaner, and the sound they made was also strikingly different from the morning.From inside the home, Jamie could hear the sound of the ax moving through the air, and it brought a surprised smile on his face.“She’s achieved that state already. It doesn’t seem like a fluke since she’s been maintaining that state for five minutes now.”He walked out through the back door,
CHAPTER 374
In the afternoon, Diane finished swinging the ax more than ten thousand times, and her shoulders weren’t able to lift the ax anymore.She was done for the day.Even though Jamie told her to keep going, she didn’t want to hold the ax for another week at least.She was heading inside the house, but she stopped after seeing Jamie hold the ax.He stood by the logs and swung the ax down just once.All the logs were neatly cut in half. He waved his hand, and they got rearranged in a nice-looking heap.Diane’s jaw dropped. “H-How the hell did you do that?”“You’ve seen it with your own eyes,” he replied.“Aura… can I also do that if I use aura?”“Well, you can go and take a rest for a few days, then try again,” Jamie answered. “If you keep working like this, then it might take you three to four years to manifest aura.”Diane frowned. “I-I can’t waste that much time. Didn’t you say that ax-cutting is the best way to bring out aura?”“But you’ve got no talent,” Jamie snorted. “You don’t have t
